Sue Taylor Grafton born April 24 1940 is a contemporary American author of detective novels. She is best known as the author of the 'alphabet series' "A" Is for Alibi etc. featuring private investigator Kinsey Millhone in the fictional city of Santa Teresa California. The daughter of detective novelist C. W. Grafton she has said the strongest influence on her crime novels is author Ross Macdonald. Prior to success with this series she wrote screenplays for television movies. Grafton chose to use the name Santa Teresa as a tribute to the author Ross Macdonald who had used it as a fictional name for Santa Barbara in his own novels. In the series In apparent tribute to Macdonald Millhone refers to her private investigator license as a "photostat" as did Macdonald's character Archer. Grafton's first book of this series is "A" Is for Alibi written and set in 1982. The series continues with "B" Is for Burglar "C" Is for Corpse and so on through the alphabet with the exception of the 24th novel simply titled "X". After the publication of "G" Is for Gumshoe Grafton was able to quit her screenwriting job and focus on her novels. The timeline of the series is slower than real time. "Q" Is for Quarry for example is set in 1987 even though it was written in 2002. Grafton has publicly stated that the final novel in the series will be titled "Z" Is for Zero. Grafton's novels have been published in 28 countries and in 26 languages including Bulgarian and Indonesian. "N" Is for Noose is the 14th novel in Sue Grafton's "Alphabet" series of mystery novels and features Kinsey Millhone a private eye based in Santa Teresa California although much of this novel's action takes place outside that fictional city. The novel was a New York Times best-seller. This novel takes place mainly in the small-town mountain community of Nota Lake California where Kinsey has inherited a client called Selma Newquist from her periodic boyfriend Robert Dietz temporarily out of action back home in Carson City where Kinsey has reluctantly been taking care of him following knee surgery. Through much of the novel there is an oppressive feeling of both physical and metaphorical cold as Kinsey tries to cope with being out of her Santa Teresa comfort zone. Selma's brief is vague: she fears her husband Tom a sheriff's officer who died of a heart attack a few weeks before had something on his mind at the time of his death and she wants Kinsey to find out what it was. With very little to go on Kinsey needs all the help she can get but it is not forthcoming from the residents of the insular community where she finds Tom was held in high respect whilst reactions to Selma range from tolerance for Tom's sake to downright dislike. Tom's colleagues in the sheriff's department including Tom's partner Rafer LaMott and brother Macon Newquist close ranks around his memory though their respective wives as well as Selma's 25-year-old hunk of a son by her first marriage Brant are slightly more friendly and helpful as is CHP officer James Tennyson who found Tom's body. A frustrating search of Tom's home office reveals nothing more than some doodling and a list of phone numbers but it seems someone is worried about what Kinsey might find when she is first threatened by a masked driver and then attacked in her temporary accommodation the dismally unwelcoming Nota Lake Cabins run by Tom's elder sister Cecilia Boden. Kinsey follows up leads from the phone numbers she found in Tom's office from which she finds Tom was interested in the case of a petty criminal Alfie Toth whom he had traced to a hotel in Santa Teresa before Toth died in what might have been a murder or a bizarre suicide. Toth's unusual death has curious similarities to that of a prison associate of his career-criminal child-abuser and rapist Pinkie Ritter who died 5 years earlier but whose body only came to light near Nota Lake shortly before Toth was killed. Kinsey traces local sheriff's department officer Colleen Sellers who had been in love with Tom who reluctantly assists with information that Tom was suspicious that someone close to him was responsible for the deaths of both Toth and Ritter. When she also finds out that one of Ritter's daughters Margaret worked for Tom at the sheriff's department Kinsey reluctantly realizes she has to return to Nota Lake to wrap up the case. Now enduring open hostility in the town and a sinister atmosphere of danger and unsure who she can trust Kinsey discovers that Rafer's daughter Barrett has had Tom's missing field notes since his death - but they are in code. Kinsey cracks the code and realises that the threat comes not from one of Tom's colleagues but his step-son Brant who had himself been sexually abused by Ritter killed him in retaliation and then killed witness Toth later when he found out through Tom's investigation where Toth was. It was the realization that Brant had committed murder and that Brant had found Toth through him which was causing Tom's anguish before his death. Despite being unwittingly drugged by Brant in a final showdown Kinsey manages to subdue him much to Selma's horror. Henry Holt and Company hardcover
